Observation Narrative
Abundant seepage emerges from the base of the slope to the south and flows through the wetland. Herbaceous vegetation is in places quite tall, indicating good nutrient status of the soil. Vernal and some aestival plant species may not have been evident on this late sampling date.
Plot located in the center of the wetland.
